Top Flite Rascal 18 JIGTIME Flying Balsa Aircraft, B1

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Sold   

Many companies tried to produce fully prefabricated flying model kits that would really fly. Of all these attemps, only Top Flite succeeded with the late 1950s 'JIGTIME' flying rubber free-flight model series. The Jigtime series were highly prefabricated 3D (not profile), all balsa models with no tissue. The tissue, rib and spar method was eliminated and it is built off of central jigs with all parts factory pre-painted with a colorful design. Includes fuselage sides, top & bottom, completely finished wings with the correct dihedral and camber, finished tail feathers, fully formed wire landing gear struts, finished wheels, plastic prop, thrust button, washers, rubber motor and full instructions. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried and NOTE: missing 1/2 of the pilot bust. Otherwise complete with all other parts and includes instructions.

Fantastic Plastic XSL-01 Manned Space Ship - With Materials For Building The Revell Launch Pad, 1/75

Resin Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc+

Sold   

Sells for $185 new. This very large XSL-01 is a scaled-up copy of the original classic Revell 'S' kit. It is cast in high-definition resin and even has decals in the proper colors as the original Revell model. Because this Fantastic Plastic issue came with it's own base and not the original Revell base, the previous owner purchased a very large number of factory-sealed bags of Plastruct material that could be used to scratch-build a Revell launch base; even a quality photocopy of the Revell instructions are included for reference material for the pad. He even includes ladders and railings. This big XLS-01 has not been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts present and includes decals and instructions. Please note that for this issue, Fantastic Plastic replaced the weak 'styrene rod' in the instructions with a metal rod that is taped into the box top.

Tamiya Flakpanzer Gepard Radio Control, 1/16, 56003

Lincoln Douglas DC-3 - Sabena - (ex Kader), 1/96, 3912

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Sold   

Nicely made small scale kit from high quality Lincoln molds. Dates from the early to mid 1960s. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Lincoln was based in Hong Kong. Plastic kits were not the primary business, but they established quite a line of them before discontinuing production in the late 1960s/early 1970s. Many molds moved to Kader, also in Hong Kong, who reissued the line. Many molds eventually found their way to the USA either through ATP (who purchased the excess kit stock when Kader sold out) or IM.

Jo-Han 1960 Desoto Adventurer Hardtop, 1/25, C4460

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed Exc++

Sold   

Still factory sealed. The long, low lines and graceful fins stretching from the "A" pillar to the taillights made for a beautiful Desoto. Sales in 1960 lagged, however. It was not that the car was bad - the cars were reliable and stunning performers. Desoto was more the victim of corporate political infighting than anything else. The 1960s were the last full line, with a brief introduction of two Desoto Automobiles in 1961. Since Desoto cars were still in demand, some dealerships even sued the Chrysler Corporation for discontinuing the line. This model is very well molded and detailed. It features full engine & detailed compartment, opening hood, complete interior, spotlight, gearshift/turn signal/tach assembly, seat belts, side view mirrors and more. Molded in colored plastic (the color varies kit to kit), clear, red-tinted clear, chrome plate parts and rubber tires.

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed VG

Sold   

Still factory sealed. Very large kit of the oversized Luftwaffe transport that was originally designed for Sealion, the invasion of Great Britain. The glider was to be towed by a He-111Z tug. This glider version proved to be a bit dangerous, so the Luftwaffe installed engines on the aircraft; it was much more successful that way. This well detailed kit has over 250 parts. Features interior detail in the cargo bay, opened or closed bay doors, very good cockpit and more.

Guillows Focke-Wulf FW-190 - 16 Inch Wingspan Flying Aircraft, 1/32, 502

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Sold   

From the 1960s and one of a very popular 16.5 inch wingspan series of World War 2 stick and tissue flying kits. Includes die cut balsa parts, vacuform nose, wheels, plastic propeller, hardware, vacuform canopy, colored tissue, decals and full size plans with detailed building instructions. The model has not been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. Guillow's founder, Paul K. Guillow, was a WWI naval aviator. In 1926 he began producing wooden model airplane kits. His 'Shelf Models' were some of the earlier non-flying models in production. Guillow's grew during the model boom of the 1930s, and when the Depression hit the hardest, Guillow's responded with lower prices and became one of the low price leaders, frequently advertising in Model Airplane News and other leading publications. During the war, like most manufacturers, Guillow's was forced to alternative materials such as cardboard and pine. Guillow's survived the post WWII slump by creating many inexpensive profile flying rubber powered aircraft and gliders in the 1950s (along with North Pacific) which became famous - some are still available today. The stick and tissue lines have been updated with laser cut parts and are still in production as of 2009.
